Washington County officials are touting the Old National Pike as the region’s new “broadband superhighway.”
High-speed broadband internet is being expanded to other parts of Route 40 in Washington County after it was announced last month that the service would be coming to Scenery Hill.
The county commissioners unanimously approved a contract with DQE Communications for the company to install broadband in the villages of Glyde and Beallsville during their Thursday afternoon meeting.
The expansion will benefit 199 houses and 22 businesses in the three villages on the Route 40 corridor. That includes the 97 houses and five businesses in Scenery Hill that the county announced last month will receive high-speed services.
